"Rep. Jackie Speier (D-CA) on Thursday held up steak, vodka and caviar during her House floor speech in an effort to shame Republicans who want to slash $40 billion from the food stamp budget, while they continue to go on 'lavish' trips financed by taxpayers and other groups. Earlier this month, House Republicans introduced a bill that caved to conservative members and doubled the amount of cuts the party was proposing to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. 'They dine at lavish restaurants, eating steak, vodka and even caviar,' she added, showing food props to members of the House. 'They receive money to do this. That’s right, they don’t pay out of pocket for these meals.'" Continue reading →
"Police in Washington Township, Ohio are investigating an officer’s conduct after footage surfaced online of him waving his Tazer at two people already handcuffed on the ground and seemingly grabbing a teenage boy during a traffic stop. The Toledo Blade reported on Wednesday that Officer Eric Hart was on paid leave while his department investigates his encounter on Sunday with Aaron Tatkowski, his daughter-in-law Cassandra Meyers, and Meyers’ 14-year-old son. The description for the video contends that Hart blocked Tatkowski’s driveway while stopping Meyers, and that the confrontation began after Tatkowski asked Hart to move his vehicle."

"An Arkansas mayor admitted this week that he had accidentally fired a rifle inside city hall, shattering a window. Flippin James 'J.J.' Hudson told the Baxter Bulletin that nine days after he fired the rifle that had been seized by police, the incident had been 'all been taken care of; it’s all been cleaned up.' 'I’m not going to have any further comment on it,' he said. But according to the paper, the shards of glass could still be seen over the entrance of city hall and the window had still not been repaired." Continue reading →

"ABC Radio this morning broadcast the voice of a 'Pentagon official' who explained that the maniac who murdered all those people at the Washington Navy Yard was not able to just walk in with a shotgun and begin blasting away because of the government’s asinine gun-free-zone-on-military-bases policy, or its grotesquely inept 'security' policies, but because of 'budget cuts.' It is you stingy, selfish taxpayers who are at fault here for not paying enough taxes. Shame on you. How much more blood will be on your hands?" Continue reading →

"[..] A similarly skewed set of priorities was displayed in the official response to the killing spree at the Washington Navy Yard. A SWAT team from the Capitol Police was dispatched in response to the shooting – but was reportedly ordered to stand down, rather than intervene in an attempt to save the victims. Twelve people were killed before the shooter was stopped. There are roughly 200 SWAT deployments each day in this country – almost none of which involve the protection of innocent people. Apparently, SWAT teams are reserved for low-risk drug raids and killing 107-year-old men armed with pistols, rather than for responding to actual danger." Continue reading →
